FINALLY SOME COMMON SENSE?

For those who are interested in the more detailed side of planning, a very helpful judgement has been handed down this week by Lewison LJ, Floyd LJ and Jackson LJ in the matter of R (Fulford Parish Council) v City of York, Persimmon [2019] EWCA Civ 1359.  

No doubt many will see this as very welcome news because it will enable non-material changes to be made to schemes without having to follow more onerous application routes.

The power under section 96A is restricted to non-material changes. It follows that a change in approved reserved matters can have no material impact.
